Yes, I'm a May child. My birthday was 10 days ago. Adding another year to my age and I'm ten days older by now! A sudden thought came to my mind that I should post something connected to my birthday. It's just at the right time before this month ends.

All this while, I only know my zodiac sign . I'm curious to know what are other things connected to the birth month of May. First, I surfed for the birth flower and got this answer :

Lily, Lily of the valley

Oh! that's cool. I must say that only now I know about it! I searched for more informations about this flower and this is what I got from http://www.ehow.com

Lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis) is a fragrant flowering plant used in religous ceremonies, world celebrations, perfumes and in gardens. Also known as the May lily, it means "return to happiness" and most often symbolizes chastity, purity, happiness, luck and humility.

I don't have any special wish for this year. But since I'm talking about flower, bull and emerald, I would simply say I hope my life is as fragrant as lily, energetic as a bull and my days shiny (and bright) like an emerald!

I had a sound sleep and waking up this morning, I feel blessed for it's raining outside after days of baking heat! I guess, my long hours of sleep has recharged my mind which I really need or else, it will be another day without knowing anything to write for my blog update.

The sounds of rain pattering the roof soothe my mind. Its regular taps is like a rhythm that naturally goes into the inner part of the soul. I take a long breath of the cold morning air. It's really refreshing! This is indeed a beautiful morning or rather a beautiful Sunday. Yes, it's Sunday! I like every weekend. As I always say, a time to let my hair down and paint the town red!

On a day like this, I pamper myself. For 5 days in a week, it's hectic, having to rush for work and at work place going through paper works, making sure everything is done before deadlines.

Among the first things I did this morning was checking my blog and replying comments. I was smiling reading some comments from friends. It always makes me feel good! I also spent some time at my virtual library reading some imp's stories. I am kinda addicted to this type of stories! Usually, people are scared of imps but this imp is an exception. It has long pointed ears but the face is so cute! It's so lovable! If imp could be kept as pets, I would definitely choose this one because it is really a smart imp! Who could resist that!

Now, let me gulp down some goat's milk which is my favourite. It is high in protein and calcium, no sugar added and most importantly no goaty taste. It tastes great!

What do I plan today? I am thinking of going to my favourite picnic spot, the Tanjung Batu beach. It's only about 5 minutes' drive from my place. I can even walk there if I want to. I used to do so when I was a kid. Going there with my family or sometimes having a group picnic with friends, accompanied by our teachers. It was so much fun! Though I couldn't swim, it didn't stop me from playing with ripples of waves. I'm sharing with you all some of the photos I took at Tanjung Batu beach.

This is something which I dread to say. It breaks my heart thinking of a pet which I loved most 'left' me so untimely. I have a soft spot for cats and love having them around the house. What saddens me is the passing away of my Siamese kitten (male). It happened two days ago which shocked me seeing it motionless at the front door as though it was just sleeping. It was such a lovely kitten with white and smokey fur, blue eyes and very playful. Now, I am missing its playfulness, its purrs and above all its presence in the house. I don't know what magic do pets bring to my life for I feel they play a vital role to fill up my bad days. There's some kind of soothing feeling when I am able to cuddle them, stroke their furs and hear them purr. Watching them running after each other and around the house always make my day. They give unconditional love without having to judge the person I am.

This is a dedication for my Siamese kitten which now RIP.

I named you, Upa, my Siamese kitten,
Your cottony white and smokey fur,
Hold my eyes in sheer amazement,
Your blue eyes, so lovely they are,
Sometimes starring sharp at me,
When I fail to give due attention.
Your naughtiness makes my day,
You run, climb, scratch and play,
And bite me so very tenderly
but I let you do so, dear baby.

Now.....

It's only a memory when
you left me so untimely,
I lost my sanity thinking
you'd be with me everyday,
You had left for two days and
made me feel my day so grey,
It's so void without your cry,
Saying your name, my lips turn dry,
I pray you're at a place so heavenly,
The happiness of having you will
always be in my loving memory.

*The picture above isn't my kitten but it looked exactly the same. I have some problems to upload pictures from my camera, so having this picture eases so much of my pain.
